All of this could be true. Although I definitely think winning America WTT and Romania doesn't make you the heavy favourite. I think Goudarzi could equally be as much a favourite after all he won two much tougher competitions (Iranian nationals and Poland).
He is the heavy favourite according to the voting on here, which is a forum of people with a lot of wrestling knowledge.

For Whirlpool Inner Cap (Part Number: AP3953865)

Bill for Model Number whirlpool LSQ8000HSQ0
Answer Hello Bill. Here are the steps to replacing the agitator, cam, dogs ,and bearings. Pry the agitator cap off by inserting a screwdriver into the cap's notch Pull the inner cap (if present) off – most Whirlpool machines use this inner cap, with a handle, to gain access to the center bolt Remove the bolt in the center of the agitator (Earlier models used a 7/16" hex-head steel bolt) (Recent models use a 1/2" square drive plastic nut – use a 3/8" X 1/2" ratchet adapter) On older models, grasp the bottom portion of the agitator and pull the entire ass'y off.(Recent models allow just the top portion's removal to access these 'dogs') Older models – place the agitator on the floor, and, standing carefully on the bottom portion, pull the top half off. Turn it over, and the dogs will be accessible for replacement. Newer model dogs can be replaced once the ratchet ass'y is removed. There are several versions currently in use, but most can be replaced without removing the bottom agitator half. On older versions, be careful to align the two tabs when inserting the upper ass'y back onto the agitator bottom half. When these are aligned, they will friction-fit the two halves together, making it easier to reinstall the ass'y. Handle it only by the bottom half to prevent pulling the top half off when reinstalling. Hope this helps..
John for Model Number maytag mvwc6esww
Answer Hello John. The inner cap W10074580 pulls out of the center of the agitator to remove it. You may need to use pliers to grip the tabs on the top and pull it out of the agitator.
Gary for Model Number LBR5133AW0
Answer Gary, No the "O" ring on the inner cap would not cause water to leak from the tub. You'll need to remove the cabinet and check the tub cover and outer tub for cracks or defective seals, the pump and hoses for leakage. If you're careful, you can actually operate the washer with the cabinet removed, so you can check for th leak. We'll send you some information that should help you out.
Answer Hello Mark! The fabric dispenser is part number 63580. Thanks!
Darrell for Model Number wtw5540sq0
Answer Hello Darrell. The inner cap pulls out of the agitator. It is not threaded. Hope this helps.

But now I'm getting enthusiastic to try more with it. I have downloaded Windows Media 8 and wmv files have audio, but no video. Can anyone help me with why this would be? |

We've been talking natural remedies this week, and you may want to revisit the Monday Mission HERE to read the good ideas for fighting the sick bugs that readers shared in the comments section.
One thing that always stops all my progress with fighting germs naturally is the massive amount of ingredients I don't have that most natural remedies require. I do have a health food store trip planned for Monday, and I'll be taking my list from the Herbal Nurturing eBook (win it HERE), but if you aren't comfortable with essential oils because you've never seen one in your life and wouldn't have the faintest idea of where to find them in your community…I assure you, I understand.
That's why I'm always happy to hear time and again that plain old garlic is great for fighting germs. It's antiviral and antibacterial, and there are a great many ways you can use it.
Ways to Get Garlic in Your System
- Eat it
- Rub it on your feet/put crushed garlic in your socks
- Pour garlic-infused olive oil into your ear
- Rub mixture onto chest
- Can you inhale garlic essential oil? I wonder…
Using Garlic to Fight Germs
The best of these posts are not mine, because I'm still learning a lot about these natural remedies and I would rather send you to those who are more well-versed than I!
- Put Garlic to Work for You (including recipe for GOOT (Garlic Oil Ointment Treatment) that you rub on your chest
- Using Garlic Medicinally (history of garlic, how to use it, what diseases it tackles – a super comprehensive post!)
- Fighting Ear Infections Without Antibiotics (how we managed it at our house)
Eating Garlic: Favorite Recipes
- Garlic Soup (Cheaper Than a Visit to the Doctor's)
- How to Eat More Garlic
- Creamy Garlic Salad Dressing
- Sweet Potato Garlic Dip
- Butternut Squash with 12 Cloves of Garlic
- Health Benefits of Garlic and How to Prepare and Store
- Bonus Anecdote: I'm a Garlic Virgin
Other Natural Remedy Resources
I feel like I need a course in how to do this stuff, complete with a package of ingredients on the way out. Garlic is in my fruit bowl (isn't that where everyone keeps theirs?), so I can handle that. I use it and cook with it often.
But when it comes to fixing my daughter's cough in the middle of the night, I know how to steam her out with hot running water (tent yourselves over the sink with two towels and breathe deeply), but I relied on a homeopathic cough medicine from RiteAid for the rest. I'm not even sure if the ingredients are safe, but I was desperate. The guilt!
I'm taking some time to read the following posts and try my hardest to be prepared for the next Kimball family illness. (Michele's book Herbal Nurturing does include "quick fixes" for when you're not ready, thank goodness for that!)
- Stephanie has been sharing natural home remedies for tons of stuff all month! Check out her Natural Home Remedies and Illness Prevention Month series (and a Natural Remedies Carnival, too!)
- Tracey of Anarres Natural Health, a certified natural health practitioner who sponsored one of the natural sunscreen giveaways this summer, commented at the Monday Mission and shared some great thoughts and this link to Natural Flu Prevention. She also gave some important advice essential oils, calling using oregano internally "like using a tank to move a chair." Thank you, Tracey!
- How to Make Elderberry Syrup – I've had this post tagged since last year, but I didn't get around to buying dried elderberries. Because, you know, they're stocked practically in the checkout aisle at the grocery store (i.e. the only store I find myself in). This year, I'm doing it!
- Preventing Colds and Flu This Winter – another comprehensive post with practical advice and a well-stocked natural medicine cabinet.
- Stocking your Natural Herbal Medicine Cabinet – one of the most popular posts at Passionate Homemaking
- People's Paste for cuts and owies
- Homemade Vaporizer Solution
- Getting Over Sickness Naturally
Phew! No wonder I get overwhelmed when I try to make headway in this category. My recommendation for you? Bookmark all these post tagged "natural remedies" and wish you had done more until next flu season.
Just kidding. That wasn't a very good plan, it's just what I ended up doing.
Choose one area you most wish to improve, one recipe you will try, either for overall health (like elderberry syrup) or to fix what's broken (like the vaporizer solution). Find some essential oils (my sponsor Provident Essentials sells them, along with many others out there!) and get started. Buy Michele's eBook if you're really serious (25% off with code kitchen25 HERE).
Most importantly of all, question any prescription for antibiotics, not because you mistrust your practitioner or think you know better, but to be informed. Is it 100% necessary or are there other options? Is it possible this issue will go away on its own in time? Is the antibiotic for comfort or the only way to beat the germ? Our family has avoided antibiotics twice in the past year by asking lots of questions, waiting a few hours, and doing some Google searches.
I would never do anything to put my kids at risk or keep them in pain, but I always question to make sure a medication is truly in their best interests.
How about you? Natural remedies or Meds all the way?
This little announcement is actually sort of related to the post, because keeping your stress low is certainly a way to stay healthy. I mostly want to share with you because it's time-sensitive information. Lisa Byrne, who you met here, is coming out with a new guide for the holiday season. Lisa will share a plan for boosting your immunities, doing food right even during the holidays, and keeping your focus on what's important instead of piles and piles of to-do lists. For $45 you get one video, 3 audio classes and a 50-page workbook. Lisa is a certified holistic health counselor who knows what she's talking about.
The time-sensitive part? As a pre-launch sale, Lisa is offering HALF OFF the Roadmap to a Healthy, Happy, and Meaningful Holiday Season, but only through Saturday! That's some significant savings. You may want to click over to Lisa's explanation and see if this is something for you before the price is set back at $45.

Ten Ways To Prevent Food Poisoning
Most people assume that food poisoning comes from restaurants, cafes and fast food outlets but, according to the FSA, you�re just as likely to get ill from food prepared at home.
�People don't like to admit that the germs might have come from their own home,� says Dr Andrew Wadge, chief scientist at the FSA. But it's a common myth to think that food poisoning only comes from a dodgy takeaway.
Follow these tips to reduce the risk of food poisoning at home:
1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water and dry them before handling food and after handling raw foods (meat, fish, eggs and vegetables) touching the bin, going to the toilet, blowing your nose or touching animals (including pets).
2. Wash worktops before and after preparing food, particularly after they've been touched by raw meat, including poultry, raw eggs, fish and vegetables. You don�t need to use anti-bacterial sprays. Hot soapy water is fine.
3. Wash dishcloths and tea towels regularly and let them dry before you use them again. Dirty, damp cloths are the perfect place for bacteria to breed.
4. Use separate chopping boards for raw food and for ready-to-eat food. Raw foods can contain harmful bacteria that can spread very easily to anything they touch, including other foods, worktops, chopping boards and knives.
5. It's especially important to keep raw meat away from ready-to-eat foods such as salad, fruit and bread. This is because these foods won't be cooked before you eat them, so any bacteria that gets on to the foods won't be killed.
6. Always cover raw meat and store it on the bottom shelf of the fridge where it can't touch other foods or drip on to them.
7. Cook food thoroughly and check that it�s piping hot all the way through. Make sure poultry, pork, burgers, sausages and kebabs are cooked until steaming hot, with no pink meat inside.
8. Keep your fridge temperature below 5C. By keeping food cold, you stop food poisoning bugs growing.
9. If you have cooked food that you're not going to eat straight away, cool it as quickly as possible (within 90 minutes) and store it in the fridge or freezer. Use any leftovers from the fridge within two days.
10. Don�t eat food that's past its "use by" date label. These are based on scientific tests that show how quickly harmful bugs can develop in the packaged food.

This moment from a Rick Santorum rally today is reminiscent of the infamous moment from October 2008 in which a woman called Obama an "Arab" and John McCain corrected her saying he's a "good man" (as if those two things are mutually exclusive). Except this time, unlike McCain, Santorum doesn't even attempt to set this woman straight.

at gw2 launch concurrent users were higher than at any point in wow's history but they still had 2-4 hours of downtime a week
guess all those people NOT logged in matter lol

I come from a time and a place where I judge people by the content of their character; I don't give a damn if you are tall or short; gay or straight; Jew or Gentile; White, Black, Brown or Green; Conservative or Liberal.
Writer and journalist for Adventures In Poor Taste (http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/)
lol, that's such a lie
since vanilla's launch weekly downtime or more has been a constant. we've had 2 weeks in the past 10 that saw no tuesday maintenance, one of those weeks saw a wednesday maintenance and the other week saw a cluster of servers down for around 17 hours
i personally don't give a fuck about maintenance day but you people who make up reasons to NOT GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR get on my nerves.
...Or maybe you're just constantly complaining about everything that you've lost track of what's logical in your arguments and what other people say.
I dunno. I see half your posts and it's just mindless..complaining. You start off making good points then get passionate and emotional invested in the argument which in turn makes you kinda seem like you rage.
Who cares if you're a fanboy or hater..just argue civilly and stop insulting one another.
Writer and journalist for Adventures In Poor Taste (http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/)
Umm because it has always been this long maintenance time, most subscribers are happy with it, so no need to change the process i guess? Plus, I don't think when they expand the servers they say to themselves "lets invest in 10x more expensive stuff so we can get defrag backup comschmolidate whatever times down to 5 minutes!".
I don't even try to play on Tuesdays until 6pm ST because I've grown accustomed to not being able to log in til late afternoons.
Survival is Key
this is what we needed a "let's just all get along" post. haven't seen one of those in...minutes. the future MVPs on wow's official forums always do this. they bring NOTHING of value to light, don't debate either side, but can't stand NOT posting.
fanbois and haters aren't possible to argue with because facts don't matter. fanbois feel it is their birthright to defend blizzard. they consider an anti-blizzard post an anti-them post. that's what makes them fanbois
haters are like the guy in the other thread who are stupid, can't debate because they're too lazy to research ANYTHING, almost always young, and they say shit like "flying mounts made wow the worst game ever"
that's as fucking dumb as defending blizzard's right to give you half what you paid for. neither group is competent or willing to use a thought process, they have picked their side and will argue however necessary to defend their side
so take that wannabe future-mvp talk somewhere else
I know we are losing gameplay time, but the servers are down for a reason. A new raid came out today and although this thing has been tested sometimes when you incorporate it into old code things go a little haywire. I've played other mmo's with literally day long extended maintenance. Reading some of the other posts... it is true often blizzard forgoes maintenance for restarts and no downtime is incurred, but if you want the game to update you've gotta understand that some downtime is needed.
As for switching maintenance times... everyone has different hours that work best for them and no matter what hours they are changed to some of the player base will be inconvenienced. The maintenance would have ended long before evening hours if everything has gone as planned. But things didn't go as planned. To have the maintenance start earlier would have meant the employees who likely already came to work at like 4am to get this going would have to show up at 11pm the previous day or midnight.
I just don't personally feel that this problem is as big as people are making it out to be.
(when ulduar came out servers were not stable til around 7pm PST and then there were multiple bugs... raid dced in ulduar and couldn't log in until after midnight PST. Compared to that... this is nothing lol)
Writer and journalist for Adventures In Poor Taste (http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/)
Maintenance days are always great for reminding me why it's embarrassing to be associated with other gamers. They'll stomp their feet and cry like children at the drop of a hat.
"Terror, darkness, power? The Forsaken crave not these things; the Forsaken ARE these things."
Blizzard had to reevaluate the difficulty for the new raid on normal and heroic difficulties.
Synek - best rogue in the world
I hate the way that things go wrong sometimes. It makes me angry. Then mommy puts me in time-out, which makes me sad.
Cause swtor and the other fai...umm...awesome MMOs have just as many servers and as many features that require keeping an eye on.

Press F#9 when boot and bootmenu comes up and only harddrive with win 7 is available to choose, usbstick dosent shows up. Whats wrong?
Take the 2-minute tour
Ask Ubuntu is a question and answer site for Ubuntu users and developers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
If USB doesn't show in boot menu, probably there's something wrong with it. Perhaps you should format it and see if it shows in the boot menu without anything else in it. You should proceed with creating Ubuntu live USB only after you can see the reformatted empty USB. If it doesn't show up perhaps you should try another one. |

THEN BE SURE TO DOWNLOAD OUR NEW FREE APP (or SEARCH "pro wrestling" in App Store or Android Marketplace)
Kayfabe DVD: The "Slap Shot" of pro wrestling Feb 26, 2009 - 01:11 PM
Good news. The DVD for Kayfabe: A Fake Real Movie About a Fake Real Sport is finally available for online purchase. The lead character is named Randy "The Rocket" Tyler, but the comparisons to Randy "The Ram" Robinson end there. Whereas The Wrestler took a serious look at the world of indy wrestling, Kayfabe finds humor in the grassroots level of the business. The movie is essentially the Slap Shot of pro wrestling with over the top characters and good old fashioned lowbrow humor. The movie was shot in HD, yet I still consider it a fun low-budget comedy that anyone who has ever been to an independent pro wrestling show can relate to. The story focusses on Tyler and his beloved Tri-Cities International Championship Wrestling Federation (a/k/a TCICWF for, um, short). The crazy gimmicks and the dead on portrayal of indy wrestlers who take themselves too seriously are a riot. The award-winning indy flick boasts "70 percent more spandex than Spinal Tap, 25 percent more color than Saw, and 12 percent less homoerotic than Brokeback Mountain. How great is that? You can check out trailers and clips of the movie on the film's official website. Better yet, you can finally order the movie in North America and worldwide via KayfabeMovie.com.. I encourage everyone to order a copy so the producers make enough dough to deliver a sequel.

Food Network Chef Aaron McCargo, Jr. and Fresenius Medical Care Bring Bold Flavors to Restricted Diets
Celebrity Chef "Big Daddy" Creates Healthy and Delicious Recipes for People with Kidney Failure
WALTHAM, Mass. – February 28, 2011 -Maintaining a healthy diet is a goal for many people, but for those with chronic illnesses it can be a matter of life and death. During National Kidney Month this March, Fresenius Medical Care North America (FMCNA), the nation's leading network of dialysis facilities, is partnering with celebrity Chef Aaron McCargo, Jr., star of Food Network's "Big Daddy's House," to promote healthy diets that include tasty, satisfying meals for people with kidney failure.
When chronically ill patients are able to restore food as a pleasurable part of their daily lives, it helps raise their quality of life, encourages them to spend time with their family and can motivate them to be more active and healthy.
Visit www.ultracare-dialysis.com/nationalkidneymonth for Chef McCargo's renal diet recipes and to view his cooking demonstration video. Chef McCargo revamped classic dishes for the renal diet includes Crunchy Lemon Herbed Chicken, Sautéed Beef with Creamy Mushroom and Shallot Sauce, and Chicken Tacos.
With the help of one of FMCNA's dietitians, Diana Croxton, RD, LDN, Chef McCargo developed several new recipes with bold flavors for people with kidney failure who receive dialysis treatments and follow a strict renal diet. For these patients, finding meals that fit their restricted diets and also taste good can be a real challenge.
"The passion for food and eating is an integral part of our culture, and it truly is a key ingredient to our quality of life," said Chef McCargo. "When I meet people who have strict dietary restrictions – such as dialysis patients – it sparks my passion to help give them a great experience with food every day by providing simple and affordable recipes that the whole family can enjoy."
On his Food Network show, "Big Daddy's House," Chef McCargo shares his passion for big, bold flavors and fun, family cooking. FMCNA and Chef McCargo aim to show that people can follow their dietary guidelines, and still enjoy delicious health-oriented meals with big flavor!
"Fresenius Medical Care is thrilled to bring Chef McCargo's passion for food to dialysis patients to help improve their quality of life," said Barbara Zebrowski, MS, RD, CSR, LDN, Corporate Dietitian at FMCNA. "It is easy to become discouraged about food when you have limitations on what you can eat. Chef McCargo will certainly inspire patients to be more creative, resourceful and excited about eating."
Many foods that we commonly eat and consider healthy can be dangerous for dialysis patients, such as nuts and beans (high levels of phosphorus) and salt. Tomatoes and oranges (rich in potassium) can also be dangerous for those on hemodialysis. Without healthy kidneys at work, these nutrients can build up in the body and cause problems including weakness, muscle cramps, irregular heartbeats and heart disease. Because of these risks, dialysis patients must eat plenty of lean protein and closely monitor their diets to ensure stronger muscles and bones and a healthier heart.
Dialysis is a life-sustaining process that cleans waste products from the blood, removes extra fluids and controls the body's chemistry when a person's kidneys fail. Dialysis patients typically require treatment on an ongoing basis (typically every two to three days) unless they receive a kidney transplant.
View Chef McCargo's full renal diet recipes and cooking demonstration video at www.ultracare-dialysis.com/nationalkidneymonth.

Fresenius Medical Care (NYSE: FMS) is the world's leading company devoted to patient-oriented renal therapy. Through more than 2,700 clinics in North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia-Pacific and Africa, we provide kidney dialysis treatments to approximately 210,000 patients worldwide.

An upcoming Trilug Meeting
Topic: Open Source Business Intelligence ToolsPresenter: Alex MeadowsWhen: Thursday, January 12, 7pmWhere: Red Hat HQ, NCSU Centennial CampusMap: http://www.redhat.com/about/contact/ww/americas/raleigh.htmlSlides: http://www.slideshare.net/dba_alex/open-source-business-intelligence-overview
Business Intelligence has become one of the business world's most valuable tools to determine upcoming business decisions. Thanks to the open source revolution, BI is no longer just for enterprise level businesses.
This presentation will go over the different areas of Business Intelligence and show just how far open source alternatives have come in each area. BI can be broken down into five distinct areas, which include:
From the very basic reporting to the most advanced predictive analytics, open source can cover many of the features and capabilities of their multi-million dollar competitors.

Topic: Open Source Showcase and Holiday Social Presenter: You! When: Thursday, December 8, 7pm Where: SplatSpace, 331 W. Main St., Durham, NC Map: http://splatspace.org/location/ Permalink: http://trilug.org/2011-12-08/showcase
Back by popular demand, our holiday meeting will be at SplatSpace (our local hackerspace) in Durham, NC.
We will provide space to anyone who wants to showcase open source projects they find interesting. It can be software, hardware, or data -- just as long as it's free (as in speech). Think of it as a science fair or show-and-tell for open source enthusiasts.
We will also open up the kitchen area for anyone who wants to bring snacks, desserts, and drinks to share with everyone else. These items do not have to be open source, but you definitely get extra geek cred if there is a creative-commons licensed recipe sitting next to the food you bring. It also makes it easier for folks like me, who try and avoid gluten, to know what's safe to eat.
The doors open at 7pm and you can wander from table to table, to see the neat things people are showcasing. If you are presenting something, be sure to let us know which things you want to see. We will try to coordinate breaks for people so that even the presenters get a chance to see the things that interest them.
If you'd like to showcase something or bring some food to share, please add an entry to the wiki page: http://trilug.org/wiki/Meeting:2011_December_8
PLEASE NOTE: To make things a little harder for spammers, you have to enter a username and password to access the wiki. The username is "TRI" and the password is "LUG".
You may also add things to the wiki page that you simply wish someone would demonstrate. That said, please consider running that table yourself. It's completely OK to show up with 20 copies of a live CD that you've been meaning to try out and to invite others to sit down and tinker on it with you. The important parts of this meeting are sharing your interests with others and socializing. Please let us know ASAP that you intend to present something, so that we can reserve a table and chair for you.
Alan Porter, one of our fantastic steering committee members, has volunteered to demo an Arduino system, "that measures and records environmental stats for our hermit crab's cage. It's like a Star Trek tricorder for crustaceans. The hardware and development tools are all open source - so share and enjoy!"
I've heard rumors that someone is bringing egg nog, but I'm not sure how much. What are you bringing? Go add it to the wiki now :)
Looking forward to seeing all of you at SplatSpace on December 8!
Kind regards, Justis Peters
Topic: Nagios and CactiPresenter: Dylan LuskWhen: Thursday, November 10, 7pmWhere: Red Hat HQ, NCSU Centennial CampusMap: http://www.redhat.com/about/contact/ww/americas/raleigh.html
No network is complete without an effective monitoring solution, and who doesn't love a good graph or two?
Come to TriLUG's November meeting to learn the ins and outs of network and service monitoring. Fellow TriLUG member Dylan Lusk will introduce Nagios and Cacti, two premier projects in the world of FOSS monitoring tools.
Dylan will go into the details of setting up a host system to monitor the health of your network. He will then show how to setup and integrate devices and services into the monitoring.
About Nagios and Cacti:
Nagios is a powerful monitoring system that enables organizations to identify and resolve IT infrastructure problems before they affect critical business processes.
Cacti is a complete network graphing solution designed to harness the power of RRDTool's data storage and graphing functionality.
About Dylan:
Dylan Lusk is currently a network engineer and system administrator for a regional telecommunications provider. Over the years he has honed his expertise in a variety of networking-related positions, including stints at a Charlotte datacenter/ISP and a major credit card company. His extensive experience with open source network monitoring stretches back to the days when Nagios was called NetSaint (circa 2000). Over those years, he has successfully monitored everything from blade servers in the lab to climate sensors in enterprise-grade network deployments.
Topic: FabLab Presenter: Drew Nelson When: Thursday, October 13th, 7pm Where: Red Hat HQ, NCSU Centennial Campus Map: http://www.redhat.com/about/contact/ww/americas/raleigh.html Permalink: http://trilug.org/2011-10-13/fablab
Drew will take us through the challenges and rewards of using Open Source software at FabLab.
Fab labs provide widespread access to modern means for invention. They began as an outreach project from MIT's Center for Bits and Atoms (CBA). Projects being developed and produced in fab labs include solar and wind-powered turbines, thin-client computers and wireless data networks, analytical instrumentation for agriculture and healthcare, custom housing, and rapid-prototyping of rapid-prototyping machines.
When: Thursday, August 11th, 7pm Where: Red Hat HQ, NCSU Centennial Campus Map: http://www.redhat.com/about/contact/ww/americas/raleigh.html
One of the coolest parts about TriLUG is how the members share their projects with the rest of the group. Most of the TriLUG meeting presentations over the last year have been given by members, not by outside guests. But, geeks that we are, many of us are more comfortable in front of a laptop (or a green screen terminal) than we are in front of a crowd. We feel that the guy up front must have a knack for speaking, or maybe he had a class on it. What does it take to be a good speaker?
Alan Hoffler was teaching technical courses at SAS, and teaching other trainers how to teach, when he realized that his true passion was teaching communication skills. This month, Alan will show us that giving a good technical presentation is not that hard to do. In fact, it's something that any of us can do.
We are very excited about having this crash course in technical presentation skills, because we rely on our members for many of our programs. And many of us are asked to give technical presentations at work as well.
About the speaker: Alan D. Hoffler Trainer, Speaker, Consultant, Coach
Raised around America's Space Program, Alan Hoffler has earned degrees in aerospace engineering and applied mathematics and never bothered to pursue a living in either field. At some point in his 20 years of training technical corporate audiences, instructing in the college classroom, teaching public high school, and speaking nationally to pilots about flying safety he became passionate about helping others communicate more effectively. He believes that communication has the power to change a person, an organization, a community, and the world. When he's not speaking or training, he stays active serving in the local chapter of his professional organization, supporting activities and instructing in his local church, and enjoying the privileges of his commercial pilot's license. His blog identifies solutions to common communication foibles and highlights his analytical eye and desire to improve himself as well as his clients. His most challenging training endeavor is also his most enjoyable – raising two children – and is the basis of a forthcoming book on fatherhood.

so im using right now a 5D2 X2 , some 17-40 and 35L 50 L 135L 100 MACRO , |
joelconner Registered: Jan 23, 2009 Total Posts: 4004 Country: United States |
others' mileage may vary, but my siggy 85 is still one of my favorite lenses...I love that thing. I have never had the 135, but I doubt I would use it (especially since I have a 70-200 if I am needing a long lens) |
DimaVazinovich Registered: Sep 20, 2011 Total Posts: 348 Country: Israel |
i had the 70-200 F2.8 , sold it cause i never used it actually , and im feeling the 135 is a lil bit 2 much zoom for me , |

Both! |
Robin Usagani Registered: Oct 26, 2010 Total Posts: 2866 Country: United States |
i had both..... decided 135L is more for me. I love 135 too much to be using 85. |
Mitch W Registered: Nov 18, 2009 Total Posts: 2892 Country: United States |
Didn't realize the 135 was priced as low as it is (relative to some of the other L lenses, that is). My 85 1.8 sees action during weddings and receptions, but the added reach of the 135 might be just what I need. |
ryan21 Registered: Aug 08, 2009 Total Posts: 539 Country: United States |
I still use the 135 for group shots, I like what compression does at 135 for a group of people a lot more than 85. |
SloPhoto Registered: Feb 18, 2008 Total Posts: 2866 Country: N/A |
The 135 is flawless IMO. I could never find a single fault with it and it always produced whenever I picked it up...... |
ichiban Registered: Nov 24, 2009 Total Posts: 598 Country: United States |
I got a siggy 85 for sale, haven't used it much (i got the 85L) great lens with no issues. I'm actually interested in trading for a 135 too so let me know in pm and i'll shoot you some pics. |
ichiban Registered: Nov 24, 2009 Total Posts: 598 Country: United States |
oh darn it, just saw you're in israel, lol. -__- |
Jon-Mark Registered: Dec 12, 2011 Total Posts: 347 Country: Canada |
I love my Sigma 85, however I do find it has more CA than most lenses, and I find the contrast/colour isn't as good as L glass. The focusing is much snappier than it's Canon counterpart, but still pales to the 135's speed IMO. 135 is very tight, doesn't leave a lot of room, but if you're okay with the focal length I would go with the 135L |

the 135L locks on faster imo. love the compression. great for portraits. L series lenses seem to waay more reliable than sigma lenses. One of the most underrated lenses, but tend to use my 70-200 2.8 is ii a lot lot lot more. |
louloulou Registered: Aug 01, 2008 Total Posts: 1137 Country: Australia |
I adore my 135L. However I wouldn't mind an 85 length though more for portraiture than weddings. |
jmraso Registered: May 26, 2004 Total Posts: 3000 Country: Spain |
I use it all the time during the afte-rdinner shots while guests relax on the tables and find a lot of oportunities to capture nice images, other than this it only see the light in the church for head shots and very rarely in the park. |
DimaVazinovich Registered: Sep 20, 2011 Total Posts: 348 Country: Israel |
jmraso , yeah i use my 50 and 35 most of the time , but sometimes you want to get a lil bit more distance and focal length in your lens , and not being close to your subject , |

Siggy 85. It's a great lens and has very snappy AF. 35L/85 would give you great variety |
jerbear00 Registered: Jan 17, 2011 Total Posts: 668 Country: N/A |
The 135L is a great lens but your not using it. Just because a lens is awesome means nothing if it doesn't fit your style |

Inspired by the colourful world of circus, Pirouette is the newest collection by Steinunn Vala for Hring eftir hring. "The two sides to circus fascinate me. On one hand, it is beautiful and spectacular – the strong makeup, the excited energy, the bespoke performance dresses made from the softest silk, the ballerina tutus and the flowing champagne. But then, there is a dark flipside to it all." –Steinunn Vala
The collection consists of both very simple and more elaborate, colourful pieces. The bracelets and two striking necklace patterns, Ballerina and The Clown's Collar, also serve as an add-on collar to any shirt or dress. The earrings and rings to match are simple, and work perfectly on their own as a part of a more minimalistic, effortless look, too.

Synopsis, screenshots, recommendations ~ Add Recommendations Discuss individual episodes and first impressions of this anime here; reviews and final impressions should be posted in the Anime Reviews Forum. Post format and full rules can be found here. __________________________________________ Four high school girls form a band in their light music club. From what I can tell this is going to run for 13 episodes and be full of mild "school life" themes sprinkled with general cuteness. Already the general vibe and animation is reminding me a little bit of the series Hyakko which I liked. That said I plan on watching this but I don't expect anything mind blowing to happen here. :cow: |
Re: K-ON!
It's got that Haruhi feel to it,but I don't think it can top BECK.
seeing as there both about music. |
Re: K-ON!
oh yeah this is not going to be nearly as epic as Beck.
*starts singing "Full Moon Sway"* I think it's going to be a slice of life light comedy with music as a plot device. |
Re: K-ON!
Guess i'll check this one out. These really aren't my type of shows (slice of life/school life) but I'll give it a shot.
Re: K-ON!
It didn't feel like haruhi to me, the characters feel quite different.
The first ep wasn't that fun though, but I'll give it a chance and see how it develops. The premise of the show isn't that interesting imo. |
Re: K-ON!
Re: K-ON!
/agree with tylerriggs here
time waster until (hopefully, my god how I hope) something better from this season comes along. It's pretty fun, but nothing special imo. |
Re: K-ON!
I went into this show expecting it to be sorta like Lucky Star, but with music. I'm not sure if that's how it ends up, but so far I love this show. I laughed quite a bit, which a show hasn't done for me in quite awhile. Also, there's an epic amount of moe, if that's your cup of tea :P
Can't wait for the next episode! |
Re: K-ON!
the heroin is always stoned
Re: K-ON!
I decided to give this a go despite how unimpressive the manga was. This makes me feel like Manabi Straight (NOT a good sign) with watered down characters (even a worse sign). That ED was pretty good though, even if they stole a lot of clothing for Aya Hirano's wardrobe, especially Mio (at least they knew how to put on the clothing in the ED :laugh:). It sounds a lot like some of her songs too.
I might keep watch if just to see if they change up the ED, but this show is so far as unimpressive as the manga. |
